| Beschrijving keerzijde | Dynamic high-relief scene commemorating the D-Day landings of 6 June 1944, depicting a group of Allied soldiers advancing under fire onto a beach, with landing craft and naval vessels visible in the background beneath a crescent moon and shell-burst sky. Exploding ordnance and debris occupy the lower field, with a single poppy flower rendered prominently at the base as a symbol of remembrance. The legend D-DAY LANDINGS arcs along the upper border, while the denomination ONE POUND is inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Gibraltar has issued commemorative gold in volume since the 1990s, and the 60th anniversary D-Day series sits squarely in that production pattern — timed releases aimed at the British collector market. The landings of 6 June 1944 involved Gibraltar directly in one respect: the Rock served as a critical Allied staging and signals hub in the Mediterranean theater, though Operation Overlord itself was an Atlantic and Channel operation commanded from southern England.
The .9167 fineness matches the traditional 22-carat standard used for British sovereign coinage — a deliberate nod to continuity with Royal Mint practice.
